Thinking

"For this battle, some dignitary from Great Liang came to watch the Nayar Conference." Qi Si put his horse drinking water not far away, spread his legs aside, and said with his hands on the grass behind him.

Jiang Xuan squinted his eyes and looked around. The distance was not far or close. If he looked carefully, he could just see the totem seal on the flag of the army.

"Young master, this is our friend's team, and the totem of the eagle and white feather is exactly the clan emblem of the Yuanfeng Mansion."

Qisi jumped up all of a sudden, and then he looked at the team seriously. On the flags flying in the wind, there was indeed a pattern of a condor with white feathers.

He has never been very familiar with these things about Yuan Feng, nor does he know what his family's family emblem looks like, but Jiang Xuan said so, there is no doubt about it.

Looking at it now, that team is really impressive and well-trained, not at all loose and unrestrained like the outsiders, and its discipline is comparable to the Dingyuan Army under Lu Yingqiu's command.

Seeing the approval in his expression, Jiang Xuan couldn't help laughing and said: "Why, once I heard that they are soldiers of Yuan Feng, do you think they are particularly pleasing to the eye?"

Qi Si smiled and rolled his eyes: "That's natural, friends are good."

The two of them didn't stay long, and Qi Si felt a little regretful, so they had to miss Yuan Feng and A Sigu temporarily. I don't know what kind of prestige they are walking in front of this team, will A Sigu be calmer?

To the west of the Darhan Grassland, the lush grassland gradually turned into a wilderness Gobi, and not far away was the city land of the Tudan clan.

This city has always been a fortress in the northern part of the Great Wall. Whenever tribal wars break out, this city will definitely experience the baptism of war, because it is located between the two most lush pastures, and it can move forward and retreat freely by occupying it.

Therefore, Tudan City has always maintained its military configuration, and it does not shrink in peacetime. The military atmosphere is very strong. The city was born for war, and so are the people here. In addition, it is also a place where caravans come and go. Drop point.

Tudan City is so special. After discussing with Jiang Xuan, Qi Si decided to disguise himself and enter the city to hide his identity, so as not to attract attention from the moment he entered the city gate for interrogation.

Jiang Xuan still didn't ask what was written in Ji Si's letter, and why Qi Si followed the poison and drug buyers all the way here. He always maintained a very appropriate sense of proportion and distance in other people's affairs. The relaxed attitude of not asking or probing made Qi Si feel at ease.

Both of their skins were tanned, and because their facial features were well-defined, they looked like merchants or noble children from outside the Great Wall with a little disguise. Where there are pedestrians, they began to communicate in Qiang language.

The identity documents sent by A Sigu before came in handy at this time, and the two entered the city smoothly all the way. The sharp-eyed Tudan city guards had no doubts.

As soon as they entered the city, the two of them melted into the bustling crowd without attracting anyone's attention.

Looking for an inn, Jiang Xuan threw the hard and heavy leather coat aside as soon as he entered the room. He used to wear light brocade fur coats outside the Great Wall, because these leather coats were too heavy, too heavy and too solid. Walking with sandbags for a day is very tiring, which makes him unable to be free and easy.

Qisi let him rest first, put down his things and go out for a stroll.

From the city walls to the houses, Tudan City is mostly built of sandstone and yellow mud, using local materials. From a distance, the whole city looks like a giant in the wilderness standing on the Gobi, which is very rough and shocking.

There are patrolling soldiers in the city from time to time, and the relationship between the barracks and the city is very close. Dantesha, the mugger in the city, is not only the city guard, but also the general.

Qi Si was wandering around the city, inquired about Tudantesha's mansion, and went to have a look.

Seeing this, it is incredible. Almost all the Tudan clan lives in the center of the city. Several mansions in the clan surround the Mouk Mansion of Tudantesha. The people's residence is very spectacular.

If we only talk about the size of the land, it is not too exaggerated. It is just that when Qisi passed by the north wall of the house, he smelled a scent of incense, which was somewhat familiar. Thinking about it carefully, it was actually a kind of southern fragrance that was smelled in the palace of Jin Kingdom. spices.

The tribute-level incense from the Southern Kingdom was transported all the way to Saibei, and entered a city guard's mansion, where it was still used in a side courtyard.

It can be seen from this that Tudantesha is not a local snake here, but a local dragon and a local emperor.

I was stunned, but I couldn't help laughing. Who did Dantesha belong to and who did he work for? That's why he enjoyed the treatment that only money can't enjoy.

And who did he buy the poisonous "homesickness" for, and finally killed Rui Chu?

Qi Si wore a hat decorated with sparrow feathers, a Qiang robe and leather boots, like a young master of a rich Qiang businessman, walked around the main street, walked through the bustling crowd, and walked to the inn while thinking.

At the corner of the street, he passed a caravan sideways, and continued walking unhurriedly after brushing shoulders.

A bearded man in the caravan turned his head to look at Qi Si, then approached his companion walking side by side, and said quickly in a low voice, "Why do I think that man looks like your junior brother just now?"

The companion was wearing a dark-colored quilted coat, and the same dark-colored veil covered his face, revealing only a pair of deep and beautiful eyes and a straight nose.

He didn't even turn his head to look at the boy the bearded man was talking about, but stretched out a hand, and gently pushed the bearded man who was leaning over to whisper to him with his slender index fingers, and said calmly: "You see a pretty boy and say you look like him, what do you think?"

The big man scratched his neck, and his beard trembled with laughter: "Really, that's because all good-looking people look alike."

The leader of the caravan looked back at the two, and gestured to ask if there was anything wrong. The masked man waved his hand, indicating that it was okay.

So the caravan passed through the lively neighborhood and stopped at the Mouk Mansion in Tudantesha. Show something in front of you.

The butler was instantly respectful, with a smile on his face, welcoming this group of distinguished guests into the mansion.

When Qisi returned to the inn, Jiang Xuan had already finished bathing and changing clothes very neatly, regained his vitality, put on the heavy equipment again, and leisurely drank tea and ate snacks in the room.

When Qi Si saw Jiang Xuan, he felt troubled.

He intends to sneak into the Mouk Mansion quietly, to find any evidence in the Tudan Tesha Mansion to find out the forces behind him, but this is not a simple matter. Can't escape.

And there was only Jiang Xuan by his side, and he didn't intend to tell Jiang Xuan the inside story, so it was naturally not easy for him to cooperate with him.

Jiang Xuan felt that Qi Si's eyes were on him from the moment he entered the door, so he raised his eyes, and a smile appeared in the corners of the raised eyes: "Just tell me what you need, and I will do things well, and I will never talk too much."

Qi Si returned with a very tangled expression, wanted to laugh but couldn't.

In the end, he threw himself on the bed, buried his face in the pillow, and let out a long sigh.

As soon as I lay down, I was overwhelmed by the surging exhaustion. Qi Si slept until midnight. When I woke up, I only felt that day and night were not distinguished, and I was confused and lost.

In the end, he drank hot tea to wake up, and decided not to drag Jiang Xuan into the water, and went to see Mouke Mansion alone.

Jiang Xuan didn't know when he went back to his room, Qi Si didn't inform him, he just changed into a strong outfit in the room, leaving the Poli sword behind, and only brought the surprisingly sharp dagger that he bought at Gebaiyin Town .

He put the letter in his pocket, pushed open the window, sneaked into the cold night, avoided the patrolling guards in the city all the way, and went straight to the Mouk mansion according to the situation of the daytime investigation.

According to the observation during the day, Lord Mouk seems to like the style of the Han mansion very much. The building materials are not the same, but the style of the house is imitated.

From this, Qi Si roughly deduced the location of the study and the master bedroom in the mansion.

Perhaps it is because the defense of the city has always been strict, and the military camp and the city are closely divided, so there is no need to worry about people who plan to do anything wrong. On the contrary, the defense of Tudantesha's Mouk Mansion is not strict.

Qi Si is in the age of youth transformation. People of this age change very quickly, and their kung fu advances rapidly. Now he can avoid several secret sentries in this mansion by himself, and travel smoothly and silently all the way. Entered the mansion.

The night wind blew hard on the next door, and it was colder than on the grassland. With his internal strength, Qi Si sneaked all the way to the top of the eaves and walls, without feeling the slightest chill.

When he reached the corner of a courtyard corridor, he encountered a difficulty.

Although Tudantesha likes to build his house in the style of a Han Chinese house, he doesn't strictly follow the standard, which led to Qi Si finding a general location, but now he doesn't know where to go for the study.

He hesitated for a moment, then decided to go to the west courtyard to try his luck first. Before he could raise his legs, there was a sudden sound of footsteps coming from the porch. Qi Si immediately retracted his body and held his breath, hiding in the corner of the eaves in the dark.

The man stopped in his tracks, then looked up and looked around.

Qi Si felt a chill in his heart, this man's kung fu is so powerful, according to his movements just now, an ordinary master would not even notice it.

Just as he was making plans and getting ready to fight recklessly, the man left straight away.

Qi Si didn't dare to be careless, waited for a while after the sound of footsteps disappeared, and then quickly turned over and jumped onto the eaves.

Unexpectedly, a ghostly person appeared from the corner of the eaves almost at the same time, without a sound, and his movements were as fast as lightning. Qi Si only blocked three moves before he was caught.

That human voice hits east and west!

The man wrapped his arms around Qi Si's neck, tightly restraining Qi Si, and then froze for a moment.

Qi Si took the opportunity to slash with his backhand, but the man anticipated the movement and blocked it in time. He wrapped his arms around Qi Si again, and said in a low voice, "It's really you!"

When Qi Si heard these three words, he almost slipped and brought the man down. He quickly stabilized his body, so that he didn't step on the tiles and make a big noise.

The man felt that Qi Si's body relaxed a little and stood firm, and then his arms relaxed a little.

Qi Si spoke in a low voice with some difficulty: "Yuan Feng?"

Yuan Fu behind him nodded, and his chin lightly rubbed against Qi Si's sideburns as he moved. Qi Si felt his higher than ordinary body temperature, which was transmitted from his back to his back through his nightgown and his thin clothes. .

Both of them were a little surprised for a moment, but fortunately they were their own people, Yuan Feng immediately turned around with anticipation and hid in the dark corner of the corridor eaves, so as not to be discovered by secret whistle or anyone in the house.

Qisi didn't know what to say for a while, and in a trance, he asked Yuan Feng in a low voice, "Where is Tu Dan's study?"

After all, I just felt dumbfounded that I actually asked such a sentence.

Yuan Feng: "..."
